    [post_content] => This exhibition explores the origins of the Rocky Hill War Memorial, built 100 years ago, as a lasting tribute to those from Goulburn and the district who served during the Great War (WWI). Through rarely seen portraits, photographs, and objects from the Museum’s collection, many of which are on public display for the first time, it also reflects on the experiences of service personnel and those on the home front. These stories of dedication, sacrifice, and resilience reveal the profound local impact of global conflict and its role in shaping contemporary Australia.

The Museum and Memorial Tower are open from 10am to 4pm on Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon/Wed, also open on all Public Holidays and School Holidays.
